Earl Warren was born in 1891 and died in 1974.He was named chief justice of the Supreme Court in 1953.
Warren was a very important figure in politics and he was even elected as California governor.
One of the main impacts that he had after being elected chief justice was the resolution of the Brown against Board of Education of Topeka case. In this case, the result was a turning point; the segregation at school was ruled as unconstitutional.
As a result of this case and other Warren's efforts, there were many civil rights protest between the 1950s and the 1960s which finally led to civil rights laws and racial equality.
